Jay Leno Files for Conservatorship Over Wife's Estate Due to Alzheimer's

Leno Seeks to Create Trust for Wife's Care Amid Progressive Loss of Capacity

Jay Leno has filed for conservatorship over his wife Mavis Leno's estate, citing her diminished capacity due to Alzheimer's disease.
Mavis Leno has been progressively losing capacity and orientation to space and time for several years, according to court documents.
Jay Leno has handled the couple's finances throughout their 43-year marriage and seeks to create a trust to ensure Mavis has managed assets sufficient to provide for her care should he predecease her.
The couple does not have any children and Mavis Leno's brother is her sole living heir aside from Jay.
A hearing for the conservatorship is scheduled for April 9, 2024.
